An unholy epic for your eyes: A review of Elric of Melnibone

February 1, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native’s looked at the new releases of Elric of Melnibone and liked them. The Michael Moorcock Library Vol.1 – Elric of Melnibone is different insofar as it brings together the original 1980 comic adaptation into a hardback. The story is the same. At least, that’s the theory. In reality, this Elric of Melnibone feels […]

For chaos and love: A review of Elric Stormbringer

May 25, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Elric Stormbrnger is the second hardcover graphic novel in the remastered and entirely masterful series from Michael Moorcock. I really enjoyed the first – Elric: The Ruby Throne – and Stormbringer picks up straight away. We’ve an Emperor of a powerful (but not as powerful as they once were) and chaos worshiping set of warriors […]

Sword and planet: A review of Kane of Old Mars

April 8, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve seen John Carter of Mars but not read any of the Edgar Rice Burroughs stories. I had the famous title in mind as I started to read the most recent re-release by Gollancz of Michael Moorcock’s “Kane of Old Mars”. Wikipedia tells me that the trilogy was first published back in 1965. The original […]

Chaos is awesome: A review of Elric – The Ruby Throne

October 5, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

“Slender but impressive” – two words which could be used to describe the skull-white, 1000 year old, lord of Melniboné or the latest hardback from Titan Comics. The Ruby Throne is the first in a new comic adaption of the books by Michael Moorcock. I’ve not read any of the Elric of Melniboné books but […]
